Tee Higgins (hamstring) downgraded for Bengals Thursday
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday for Week 10 against the Houston Texans.
What It Means:
Higgins was downgraded from a limited session on Wednesday. After practice, he declined to comment when asked about if he's playing in Sunday's game. Ja'Marr Chase is also dealing with a bruised back, so Tyler Boyd could take on a larger workload versus the Texans. Last week, Higgins hit the 100-yard mark for the first time this season and matched his season-best with 8 catches on 9 targets.
The Texans are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to receivers, but their pass defense is only 25th in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP model. Higgins has a 17.4% target share this season while averaging a mediocre 1.37 yards per route run.
